Rank history
Just missed the top 5
GPT SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 — fast 4K wireless and great battery, but 68g and honeycomb shell make it less compelling for lightweight purists · Razer Viper V3 HyperSpeed — excellent sensor and shape for the money, but the AA-battery design makes it too heavy for a lightweight-focused top 5
Claude Logitech G Pro X Superlight — still great and often ~$90 on sale, but 63g and 1K polling are dated specs against 2026's sub-50g/8K field · Razer Viper V3 Hyperspeed — excellent sensor and value ~$70, but ~82g with the AA battery disqualifies it from a "lightweight" list
